The flowers on the altar are given to the glory of God by Lt Col John Zebelean in memory of General Robert E. Lee.
Almighty God, Lord of Hosts: Look favourably upon thy servants Robert E. Lee and Thomas J. Jackson, who so valiantly fought for their country against the Northern aggressors. Grant us, we beseech thee, to revere the example of these good men; to honor them for their defense of their nation’s institutions and way of life; and to keep their cause alive in the hearts and minds of their sons and daughters; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
